Sullenly I stare into darkness,
And ponder this fruitless plight,
To escape all that overwhelms me,
As if it were my right.
I suffer -we all do,
It is painful,
And it is true,
That it could be destiny,
Just following through.
That all we are given,
Is taken away.
That all our tomorrows,
Promise graver days.
As so,
Sullenly, I stare at the darkness,
And ponder this fruitless plight,
To escape all that overwhelms me,
As if it were my right.

Poetry: Being overwhelmed
Zeroed.
The dark wave rolls slowly over me,
Plummeting me way and far too deep.
My eyes shut tight, I see mosaic
But the wave
by Sid de Knees
I did not expect that!
There was one to the left, one to the right,
there I was caught in a horrible fight.
Pushing and
Flashes of the future come:
Scourging whips and lashing tongues.
Betrayal from a cherished friend,
where will all the heartache
by Carol Gioia
Weary and downtrodden,
feeling powerless,
beaten by the odds,
overcome with stress.
Thwarted by limitations,
succumbing to frustration,
by Bobby Coles
Boiling point reached a couple of stressors ago
Seems as though you're in a self-induced prison
Nowhere to turn to, nowhere
